Did my dead dog contact me?

Question

When my dog died six years ago, I was devastated for about a month. I would cry all the time in random places because he was older than me, and been there before I was born. I had a few dreams about him, but never thought much of it as I was only 11 and hadn't heard of dead people/animals contacting you through dreams. I had a dream he was lying on his bed and I was petting him. But I knew he was dead...I kept thinking to myself 'I only have a certain amount of time to pat him' and 'this will be the last time I ever pat him' and I felt at peace. It's hard to explain... was he contacting me?? Or was it just my mind?

Answer 1

Hello Jess

Animals can come back to say 'hello' just as humans can.

The dream could have been either your mind or him popping in.

It could be that he was contacting you. When my great aunt Carla died, I had a dream that her dog and I threw a party for her.

Answer 4

My dog died over 8 years ago, and I still cry to this day. I have dreams too about him. I know they are dreams too. In my dreams I see him sitting in front of the back door outside. I walk out there and say, you can't be here your dead. I just start hugging him. I know that any time now I will wake up. So I just sit there and hold him as log as I can. When I wake up I am crying. I know it is his way of telling me he is still watching over me. I have heard people say that dogs do go to heaven, and they are there waiting with your family for you to join them. I don't know how much of this is true, but all I know is that when I dream of him, it feels so real. I know it is real, but I also know that I am having a dream.
